2040 Comprehensive Plan: Envision Shakopee

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 1

A VISION FOR THEWEST END The West End has been the focus of recent planning efforts in Shakopee with an orderly annexation agreement with Jackson Township. While construction is underway for the primarily single- family residential neighborhood east of the bluff, Envision Shakopee sets the stage to the west for a mixed-use employment center providing space for advanced manufacturing, office, and potential satellite campus development. Additionally, closest to the bluff, higher- density residential development will provide housing options for existing and future Shakopee residents in proximity to workplaces. A system of trail greenways will provide access to the preserved bluff and provide mobility options for movement between activities at the foot and top of the bluff. Nearby retail and dining amenities could support residential and employment alike. Future development will accommodate the planned interchange improvement at U.S. Highway 169 and Highway 41. Signature architecture oriented toward the interchange and highway will provide a welcoming gateway and positive first impression for those arriving from the west. EXISTING
